Wireless Incher and TEDS

Wireless Incher

A wireless Incher (jogger) with range of 400 metres is now available. Precise adjustment of any actuation units can be achieved (mainly when installing a test specimen) without having to trail a connecting cable. It is particularly useful on larger test rigs. The transmitter only uses power in short bursts when inching, so the battery usage is minimised. The frequency transmission of data ensures fail safe operation.

TEDS ( Transducer Electronic Data Sheets)

Tiab systems can read TEDS chips and check all the TEDS sensors connected to a test rig.

A TEDS device (a small chip or EEPROM) simply contains digital sensor information to identify and characterise an analogue sensor. With the steady increase in sensors where the data is transmitted digitally, so too can all other sensor information. But till this technology can be applied to all sensors the TEDS chips are helping provide integral sensor information, when it is needed.
